Cogito Ergo Non Serviam
AG Bondi Says Release of Epstein Files Complete
Attorney-General Pam Bondi lives many times zones away from the truth. In her latest lie, she has stated that all the Epstein Files have been released that can be released and that the job is done. She is a lawyer, and she knows that that is untrue. Congresspersons have seen the unredacted files, and they state that there are redacted names that should be unredacted. The law that requires their release included internal charging memoranda which explain why a case was or was not persued. Ms. Bondi withheld them on the grounds of attorney-client privilege, which is not allowed under the Epstein Files Tranparency Act, and it begs the question of who is the client? Congress now must do something. Impeachment is appropriate.
The BBC explained,
In the latest letter, Bondi and [Deputy AG Todd] Blanche wrote: "In accordance with the requirements of the Act, and as described in various Department submissions to the courts of the Southern District of New York assigned to the Epstein and Maxwell prosecutions and related orders, the Department released all 'records, documents, communications and investigative materials in the possession of the Department' that 'relate to' any of nine different categories."
No records were withheld from the DoJ's release "on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity", the letter added.
Many in Congress are calling that nonsense (or worse). Republican Congressman Tom Massie of Kentucky said the DoJ was "signing deliberative process privilege in order not to release some of the documents."
"The problem with that is the bill that Ro Khanna and I wrote says that they must release internal memos and notes and emails about their decisions on whether to prosecute or not prosecute, whether to investigate or not investigate."
Mr. Khanna stated that the DoJ was "purposefully muddying the waters on who was a predator and who was mentioned in an email." He cited the name Janis Joplin, the rock star, and Larry Nasser, the disgraced gymnastics coach who abused hundreds of women. "To have Janis Joplin, who died when Epstein was 17, in the same list as Larry Nassar, who went to prison for the sexual abuse of hundreds of young women and child pornography, with no clarification of how either was mentioned in the files is absurd," Mr. Khanna wrote on X on Saturday.
The time has come for Congress to do something to protect its own reputation and power. The time has come for Ms. Bondi to be held in contempt of Congress and impeached. The time has come for someone in the House or Senate to name names in the well of the House, where they are immune from legal suits.
One must admit that the conspiracy nuts were not really all that nuts. Mr. Epstein was an awful human being who helped other awful human beings do awful things to other human beings. Justice demands complete exposure even if there can be no legal action taken (and the statute of limitations can be voided by act of Congress).
The internet has alleged that Ms. Bondi said if everyone in the files were prosecuted, the system would collapse. That claim has been debunked, as she never said that. Yet one must ask, if Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for human trafficking, where are the inmates to whom she trafficked them? It is impossible for dozens of victims, who have come forward, to have been abused by Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell only. There must be others. If they are alive, they must face justice. If they are dead, they should be named.
The decline under the Trump administration continues to accelerate.
